Blood pressure (BP) is a cardiovascular but also kidney disease risk factor, especially in high risk populations such as kidney transplantated one (KT). Therefore it must be accurately measured. The aim of the current study was to evaluate the quality of BP control in such a population followed at the CHU Liège. [less ▲]

The prevalence of hypertension in this specific KT population remains high in spite of different antiHTA drugs use and the well known deleterious effect of HTA on kidney function and cardiovascular risk. Home BP (and/or ABPM) should thus be recommended to identify this situation and secondary to adapt the treatment. [less ▲]

The present study would like to partially fill this gap with the idea to propose an educational program for improvement of these risk factors by diet and lifestyle modifications in the near future during the following years of their studies.
